The editor of French Vogue is catching flak for publishing a tame bondage fashion spread:

Speaking of, Carine Roitfeld is being slammed as too sexy, or too sexual, or even sexist, reports The Guardian UK. When the December/January issue of French Vogue, of which she is editor in chief, started landing on the doormats of its subscribers, angry phone calls were coming thick and fast. The issue had a special guest editor – John Galliano – and came with a calendar for 2007 featuring 13 images of beauty Karen Elson, one of Galliano’s favorite models, in skimpy black clothes and tied up with curtain cord. ‘Glamour bondage’, as Roitfeld put it; nothing more shocking than you’d find in the window of your local Ann Summers, although, obviously, infinitely more stylish. But some of the subscribers ‘are furious’, she reports.

‘I think is beautiful and a bit osé [daring]. Is like a modern Pirelli calendar, non? We try to push. But my assistant is like this with the phone for three days now, listening to insults from feminists.

In France, you have Paris, and you have the rest of the country,’ Roitfeld says. ‘I think the rest of the country don’t like us, and we don’t know them … Those who don’t like the calendar are not from Paris, they are mostly from the other part of France.’

If anybody knows where we can find those photos online, links (via email please!) would be appreciated.

Most of the controversy over bondage, or any other kink, or sex generally for that matter, can be explained in a single line:

“One half of the world cannot understand the pleasures of the other.”
— Emma to her father, in Jane Austin’s “Emma”

One of the things I like best about the bondage porn from Hogtied.com is that their photographers never display any confusion at all about the best use of a girl who’s been strictly tied in a kneeling position:

You gotta love it when you find sorority girls out camping, tied to trees with climbing rope:

Rough sex leads to bigger orgasms, says Naughtybuttcute:

Let me tell you another secret. Whenever he forces me to do something, even something mundane, it gets me hot. And you know how I told you about the really good orgasms…the big OHHHHHHHS? Well, let me tell you they’re always bigger when he’s rough.

When he holds me by my hair or yanks on the leash attached to my collar and I feel my neck going down, my lips getting closer to his cock, seemingly from their own volition… I get so wet its not funny. Sometimes I literally drip.

It’s that look, that stern look that locks his lips and bares his eyes down into me. That look that makes my knees give out arises a sudden awareness of the breeze brushing past my ass. The sex that’s sudden that goes his way instead of mine is exquisite.

I am delighted to announce that there’s a new site from Kink.com called Device Bondage. This site is a dream for folks who have dungeon envy. It looks like they turned their most industrious riggers loose with an unlimited budget for iron, steel, and aged heavy timbers, and the result is some of the most incredible dungeon furniture you’ve ever seen, graced of course by the usual lovely models in the strictest imaginable bondage:

A lot of the “devices” they’ve built remind me strongly of the dungeon devices drawn by Georges Pichard, who was particularly fond of drawing steel and wooden tools of torment as heavy and punitive as possible:

But of course this is Kink.com we are talking about, so they never neglect the little details of care and comfort (spider gag and nose hook) for their models:

If the gritty and strenuous feel of Device Bondage reminds you of the infamous gone-but-not-forgotten Insex.com site, there’s a very good reason, as explained in their press release as published by AVN Online:

Kink.com has launched its 10th site: DeviceBondage.com, a showcase for the work of acclaimed fetish director Cyd Black.

Previously at Insex, Black moved to Kink in October 2006 to oversee the development of the site and the concept. A talented and experienced rigger, Black is known as an innovative creator of bondage restraints from original wood, leather, and metal devices.

“I have been a lifestyle player and performer for 12 years; the last 7 years professionally as my full-time occupation,” Black said. “I am very excited about making my visions available to members of the Kink.com audience.”

Like Kink.com’s other sites, DeviceBondage will contain weekly updates of exclusive, original, movie-like content concentrating on well-known models engaged in bondage. On March 17, DeviceBondage also will launch live coverage of a shoot in progress, allowing members to watch and interact throughout the four-hour process of creating a 40-minute weekly update.

I must say, the new site looks very promising!
